Back when things were crazy around 2007, pilots fresh out of flight school were going straight to 121 operations....so all the aviation jobs that relied on experience builders got screwed; flight schools, sky dive operations, banner tow, 135, some corporate, aerial survey, etc. Who was coming to their rescue??? Nobody.. I don't understand why the world needs to come crashing down to bail out the regionals, who oh by the way, provide lift for some of the heaviest hitters in all of aviation. If things are so bad, Delta, United, AA, and Alaska can provide the resources and programs to shore up their pilot feed. If they, don't, the problem is of their own making. Enough with the sob stories.
